Yeah, they buy in Bulk

He looking for that 200+ lift hill that has yet to grace our Skyline

Its definitely one of those things, like seeing a horror movie in a theater, where you want to go there when it's not busy, since if there's a lot of people, you have to go through it kind of fast. I went to Creepyworld a few years ago and I think that was overhyped. They say theyre 10 in 1 or whatever, but half the stuff really wasnt very big. The thing I hate about Scarefest is, like Six Flags, is they give you online discount codes, but the online fees make them pointless(and the speed pass is unnecessary). Ive been to Darkness like 5 times and only had to wait a long times twice. The last two, we went straight in. I have been to the Darkness twice. What made me laugh afterwards is realizing it is not very Dark at all, and unfortunately not frightening either. Now a positive note though it is a long haunt.

The Darkness is way way over-hyped.

People in the know here have said that the ride system will be replaced. The old boats are too hard/expensive to maintain. Plus the fact they are 40 years old and probably pretty nasty and beat to hell.

That's exactly it, most public schools have A/C now. Still though, summer should be from Memorial Day to Labor Day.

Very true. BGT has a solid coaster lineup, not sure they could put in there that would be unique

I'd like to see a Verbolten type of coaster where Gwazi is now. Launched, Show Bldg, other effects, yada yada.

9300 is the count since it opened in 1986 ... who knows, might be...

I know it's just a figure of speech, but were you actually born yesterday? The important Word in my comment is IF. So I guess I am not very interested in the new dark ride.

If the Dark Ride is of Disney caliber then I am interested

So the boats are sure to disappear then? Sounds cool. Wonder if the Bldg going to expand as well.

Split it into Regions and re-organize groups of leadership to assess and management Parks within their region. I think Six Flags is too large for one entity (Corporate) to do the job right. The needs and regional cultures of each park are too large and diverse to be handled by one governing body. Create smaller groups of leadership to focus and manage smaller groups of regional parks. Makes sense to me.

I think SF should break up in Regions - West, Central and East. Each region can focus on a smaller amount of parks each with its own needs (SFMM has different needs then SFSTL, etc). Then I believe you may see some positive results.

In the distant near future the high speed rail will be available from STL to Chicago.... which will be rather cool imo. http://www.idothsr.org/

Only if we meet at King's Island...

Because I (and others) have been waiting for something worthwhile since the early 2000's. And while the park get tidbits of this and that (yes, we are not ignored), nothing substantial has yet to come to this park. It is infuriating to see other regional parks get all these great installs and we get used hand me downs or boring flats (which I know are important). So then drive my family to KI, HW, or SDC ... which I am happy to do. One long weekend at those parks is better than a season pass at SFSTL. I still cannot believe they haven't replaced the Bumper Cars! I know the old ones had to go... but aren't you gonna replace them??? Things like this show corporate isn't thinking out this park completely. SFSTL is just an afterthought.

If WOF gets a new Coaster (of any sorta magnatude) before SFSTL, then that will be the final nail of the coffin.

..and that 2 minute high-adventure of the Moon Cars, that's worth the Price of Admission right there! I hear next year you will ride the track backwards! Moon Cars - Reverse Crawl

But the Ninja and Boomerang ... how can you walk away from those high-tech scream machines!

You all been talking and hyping yourselves up sooo much, I just hope you are not disappointed when all is revealed. ...Like Christmas morning when you didn't get everything that you put on the List

Still thinking it will be like Verbolten

The Ninja and the Moon's will ride another year! Awesome!!!!

A Star Trek 'Beaming' pad which will send you directly to Holiday World to ride their new Coaster (and whatever else is up their sleeve)

Okay... so I will throw it out there. Any chatter about 2015 yet?
